| DESCRIPTION |
The Sheet for Creative Tasks is a specific creative
request. Those who receives it have to provide creative ideas in relation
to a well defined topic. The Sheet for Creative Tasks aims to win people's
reluctance and solicit the presentation of new ideas. Onto this sheet
the creative task should be described without too many details, specifying
however the nature (a suggestion, a solution, further alternatives, a
new concept, etc.). It is possible to provide suggestions related to the
creative techniques that could be utilised. On the sheet it is possible
to write down a specific provocation, but the recipient is free to use
it or not. A deadline is fixed and the filled sheets must be given back
to the sender within that date. The various ideas and concepts are therefore
collected and, if further information about one idea are needed, the person
who suggested it is contacted. If necessary, the people who demonstrated
high interest and capacity can be called together to hold a creative session.
The Sheet for Creative Tasks can be organised by the Centre for Creativity
or by the person in charge of the process. Any person in any sector that
needs a creative contribution for a specific topic can deliver one. Anyway
things are easier if the process is coordinated by a Centre for Creativity.
Obviously a sheet for creative tasks related to a specific sector can
be directly sent without submitting it to the Centre. |
